I'm passionate about entrepreneurship move fast and break things is amoung my favorite quotes, a cuople years ago I try to create a company with a classmate, and we miserably failed, one of the best experience in my life, a tough one I must say.

One of the more important things I learned from that experience is that you have to have not only the passion and the will, but the knowledge and lidership to make things happend.

Last year I joined to AIESEC, a great organization with excellent people that allows you to develop leadership, I was way out of my comfort zone while I was there, I'm more an introvert type of person and that's not the way AIESEC works, in there I've improved my conmunications skills, the ability to make decicions under presure and I have met people I hope to keep in touch within the years.

Now I'm about to get my bachelor in electrical engineering, I'll present my final project at the end of the month I with it reach my degree.

I belive that engineering among few other carrers puts you in that sweet spot bettween theory an practice that allows you to solve problems and make a real impact in whatever you decide to do.

I enjoy to learn and play with things, robotics as electronics are a pleasure them everything connects with programming where the internet of things an data comes into play.

I'm currently working part time with a company where I made python scripts to collect and clean data, In the meantime I'm learning the basic of machine learning on my own and try to apply them in every change I have, ethier relate variables of an electrical system, to thing in a every day life issue as a multidimentional problem with multiple solutions local minimums that can trick you if you don;t look at the big picture, or just because it's fun.

Of course there are barriers and limitations on this approach, the bigger one is the lack of mentorship to know the path to follow and the feedback to make an efficient progress.

In venezuela machine learning isn't a popular field neither in industry nor in academics so it's hard to make a career in it and due the absurdly high exchange rates it's not possible to afford and online education program, at the current rate exchange a year income can hardly reach 1000$.

In my current work I do not have a schedule, since I'm working remotely there are importance time diference that make hard schedule calls and meetings so my schedule is self paced, I have been working this way for about 6 months now and It has been quite an experience from which I'm learning a lot.
